Hi Robert,
also, use the function wizard to insert the function:
         - Type "=" in the cell you want the function to be into
         - Look at the upper left corner of the Excel window, just above 
the A column header
         - click in the drop-down arrow
Excel will show a list of functions; locate the one you want, click it; the 
wizard will have a brief explanation, besides helping you to set the 
function up.
